Sunday was working on a fire department compition tower. Now I relize why I hate gravity so much. I fell slid down an old power pole for aboue 15 foot or so and then I free fell for about another 15 foot landing on my left foot. I had a complete broke on my left femur and broke my right foot. All I can say is be careful and stay safe unless you have RSWORDS to rust to the rescue. My knight and shining medic unit, thinks bobby. Finaly got to come home but will be out for about 6-8 months. This sucks

I'm an OK medic... If he was on fire I would have done better.

It truly sucks working on one of your own. I have seen PLENTY of people messed up but when its someone you went through school with, used to cut up with (remember that brand new truck with 10 miles needing new tires ashley? ) and have trusted you life to in the fire dept... It SUCKS!!! I'm just glad he's ok. Could have been ALOT worse.
